Crispy egg rolls filled with spicy buffalo chicken, creamy cheese, carrots, and celery. Perfect game day appetizer.

# Ingredients List:

→ For the Filling

01 - 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
02 - 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
03 - 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
04 - 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
05 - 1 cup finely shredded carrots
06 - 1 cup finely chopped celery
07 - 2 green onions, finely sliced
08 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
09 - 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

→ For Assembly

10 - 12 egg roll wrappers
11 - Water for sealing

→ For Frying

12 - 4 cups vegetable oil for deep frying

# Directions:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, mozzarella, blue cheese, carrots, celery, green onions, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
02 - Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place 2 to 3 tablespoons of the chicken mixture in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll up tightly, using a little water to seal the top corner.
03 - Repeat the wrapping process with remaining wrappers and filling until all are assembled.
04 - Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or skillet to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
05 - Fry egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, approximately 3 to 4 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
06 - Serve hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They taste like your favorite buffalo wings but way easier to eat without getting messy fingers everywhere.
  • The crispy wrapper against the creamy, spicy filling is completely addictive and always disappears fast.
02 -
  • Don't overfill the wrappers or they'll split open in the oil, I learned this the hard way my first time.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before you start frying or the egg rolls will absorb too much oil and turn out greasy instead of crispy.
03 -
  • Press out any excess buffalo sauce from the filling before wrapping so the wrappers don't get soggy and tear.
  • Keep a damp towel over the unused wrappers while you work so they don't dry out and crack on you.
